History

In 1907 the county seat was moved again, this time to Wampsville. In 1908, the New York State School of Agriculture was established and occupied the old county buildings that had been left empty.
The First National Bank of Morrisville, Morrisville Public Library, and Old Madison County Courthouse are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
